I'm sorry. Hopefully I have done this correctly: bsd# setenv DISPLAY 0:0 bsd# setenv USER=root HOME=/root SHELL=/bin/csh PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/root/bin MAIL=/var/mail/root BLOCKSIZE=K FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=YES TERM=xterm HOSTTYPE=FreeBSD VENDOR=intel OSTYPE=FreeBSD MACHTYPE=i386 SHLVL=1 PWD=/lib LOGNAME=root GROUP=wheel HOST=bsd.bsd EDITOR=vi PAGER=more DISPLAY=0:0 bsd# /usr/X11R6/lib/RealPlayer/realplay.bin _X11TransSocketINETConnect() can't get address for 0:6000: Name or service not known ** ERROR **: Unable to open display aborting...
